• His role as introducer of Phur pa teachings into Tibet is well attested in the Dunhuang document Pelliot tibétain no. 44. See F.A. Bischoff and Charles Hartman, Padmasambhava's Invention of the Phur bu, manuscript Pelliot tibétain 44, contained in: Études tibétains dédiées à la mémoire de Marcelle Lalou (Paris 1971), pp. 11-28. The first part of this text has been retranslated in Matthew Kapstein, The Tibetan Assimilation of Buddhism, Oxford University Press (Oxford 2000), pp. 158-159, and see also Schaik, EDGP, pp. 184-185 (T. Takeuchi, in a forthcoming work, dates the writing of the text between 978 and 1010). A study of another Dunhuang Phur pa text, Pelliot tibétain no. 349, is found in Mayer, Pelliot 349.
